Awesome, thanks Andrew!

Thanks Empress for keeping this current -- I will delete mine now. ^

Just one minor correction that I see under Tango fares:

"These are booked in R, I, N, G, P, E, T booking class."

I class should be removed and K? added

I also note that C class earning has gone to same as J on N. American/Hawaii routes--that is good news!

So do I have this right?
 
Booked YOW-YYZ-VIE as AC flight numbers in C class

I get 500*1.5 YOW-YYZ as domestic C.

What do I get for the international segment?

Is it 100%, 125% (Austrian class-of-service) or 150%?

Thanks,

TM

I'm assuming you bought your ticket on AC stock (ticket number starts with 014).

The earning rules are according to the stock, regardless of codeshare metal which means that you bought Air Canada C the entire way and is entitled to 100% only (sorry). You do not get Austrian CoS because your ticket was not bought as Austrian stock.

That's what I assumed, but the website suggests otherwise:

From aeroplan website:

"Air Canada and certain airlines operate code-share flights, which allow both airlines to offer service to more countries throughout the world. Under such an agreement, several routes are served jointly by Air Canada and our code-share partners' aircraft.

For Air Canada code-share flights operated by another Star Alliance airline, refer to the Aeroplan Miles section of the carrier operating the flight."

Andrew what about a P fare for International routes, you have not listed that ? Is it a consolidator fare and what is the mileage accrual for that fare type?

The rules (as indicated by the post after yours) are governed by the airline whose plane you are flying, but not the airline designation of your ticket. I flew on AC codeshared flight on OS last year on discounted business class; I did receive the 25% COS bonus. The year before, I flew on a discounted business class ticket of Lufthansa, but flew on AC - no COS bonus.

Yeah, you're right.. not sure what drugs I was on when I posted that... I once flew ABQ-DEN-YYZ on AC stock in paid C and for the UA ABQ DEN flight I received a 50% COS and 25% COS for the AC DEN YYZ portion (this was March 2004). Quick, I need a drink! Mea Culpa!

Seems Andrew has removed the reference to I, but not added a reference to K. I just saw an E ticket Edmonton to Toronto in class K. The only reference to K is in the Hawaii section which is not relevant. I think maybe K does need to be added here. I will send a PM to Andrew asking him if he wants to do an update to this section. If not, maybe he will add a comment about K stating where it belongs.
